Model cards

← ARI3 overview

One card per ARI3 version. Every version so far is ARI3 Perception, which decides whether a news item is about style. The full experiment behind each version is in its notebook entry.

DISCIPLINA v0.0.2

CurrentNotebook entry
Purpose
Decide whether a news item is about style, and say when it is not sure.
Inputs
A news item's headline and feed excerpt, joined and cut to 1,000 characters, in any language the embedder covers.
Outputs
A calibrated probability that the item is about style, and a conformal set: {yes}, {no}, or {yes, no} when it is not sure (target coverage 90%).
Training data
229 labels by the editor: 194 random and 35 chosen by active learning. Calibrated on 45 random labels. Tested on 61 random labels. Architecture unchanged from v0.0.1.
Intended use
Filtering collected items before counting, with not-sure items meant for the editor.
Not for
Judging individual articles or outlets, or any use outside the index.

Metrics

Accuracy (61 held-out items)0.902, 95% CI 0.80–0.95
Calibration error after scaling0.025
Conformal coverage0.967
Confident (single-answer) share0.754
Confident mistakes2 of 61

Known limitations

  • Trained and tested on one editor's labels.
  • Mostly English-tagged training items. Other languages are barely tested.
  • Reads headlines and excerpts only, never full articles.
  • Most labeled items were published in September 2026.

Failure modes

  • Articles that sit next to style, such as beauty or retail business news, are where it errs most.
  • More decisive than v0.0.1, and it made 2 confident mistakes where v0.0.1 made none.

INDUSTRIA v0.0.1

Superseded by v0.0.2, kept frozenNotebook entry
Purpose
Decide whether a news item is about style, and say when it is not sure.
Inputs
A news item's headline and feed excerpt, joined and cut to 1,000 characters.
Outputs
A calibrated probability and a conformal set at 90% target coverage.
Training data
82 random labels by the editor. Calibrated on 29. Tested on 34.
Intended use
The baseline for later versions.
Not for
Current use. v0.0.2 replaces it.

Metrics

Accuracy (34 held-out items)0.882, 95% CI 0.73–0.95
Calibration error after scaling0.088
Conformal coverage1.000
Confident (single-answer) share0.559
Confident mistakes0 of 34

Known limitations

  • Very small training, calibration and test sets.
  • Cautious: most unlabeled items received the not-sure answer.

Failure modes

  • Half its test mistakes were beauty trade coverage, before the beauty scope rule existed.

Version history

  • v0.0.2 DISCIPLINA: current.
  • v0.0.1 INDUSTRIA: superseded by v0.0.2, kept frozen.
